116. The U.S. Has Often Supported Un-Democratic Regimes, Sir
Most governments are not democratic. It is certainly a problem, and reprehensible, when the U.S, has supported the overthrow of democratic governments and their replacement by murderous authoritarians, as has been the case on several occasions, particularly in Latin America. These actions did not, in my view, serve the best interests of the United States, even in the context of the Cold War.
